Hard boiled eggs? Bacon and eggs? Egg mayo? Pork scratchings? A burger, no bu
I thought CarbKillas would be a great low carb snack that would not require me to bolus for.
I was wrong. They would cause some pretty big spikes.
I decided I would rather have "real food" (I found they had a chemically taste probably from the fake sugar) if I needed to bolus anyway.
As always we react differently to different foods, when I've done a heavy lifting session I didn't find the carb killa shakes to be a problem, however I was extremely active.

I'll look at the carb Killa products. I know if them. I assumed they still weren't great. I'm not a fussy eater, did you ever come across the any other proteins or non flavoured proteins that are good. I wouldn't care about taste even if it is awful
If you don't like them you could always keep some cooked chicken or eggs in the fridge or maybe even shove down a can of tuna? Just be careful if you start increasing your protein a lot. But, as far as snacks on the go, the above are all my go to Inc the pork scratchings!
